Figure life painting: Final and gestures

Mmkay, here's a figure painting I did on Sept. 3rd. My figure drawing teacher (Mr. Kortlander, if you're a CCAD student) is pretty open about medium of choice. I'm glad I skipped into one of the upper level figure classes for this reason-- the teacher already assumes you know kind of what direction you're headed and lets you run with that.

Anyway, this is the longest I ever spent on a digital life painting (except for one I did plein air). About 2 hrs.

It was also definitely the trickiest, due to the fact that it was lighted entirely naturally, resulting in more subtle effects, greater effects of bounce light, etc...
